What owners wrote

Was previously contacted by an "[xxx]" from washington, dc to retrieve the power window module that had caught fire. I was going to turn the part over to NHTSA. I am in dc at the us postal service hq on mon/wed/th.

June 2011 Fire

Our windshield wipers were inoperable. The wiper switch was turned on with absolutely no response from the wipers. The dealership has replaced it. However, other electrical problems keep occurring. For example, our air conditioning switch malfunctioned, the onstar did not send tracking information properly, the alternator needed to be replaced, and the fan for the heater would not work at any speed except low. We have only had this vehicle since august.
